Help us record and monitor species to assist volunteers with ongoing monitoring of species movement.
This event is delivered by Friends of Bateman St Bushland and First Friends of Dandenong Creek the with support of Knox City Council.
This event is part of the City Nature Challenge which is an annual global event that celebrates local wildlife and flora through citizen science.
During the 4-day challenge (Friday 25th April to Monday 28th April) snap a photo or record the sound of any wild plant or animal and upload it to the iNaturalist app. Make sure to include the location details too. At the end of the Challenge, the city with the most observations wins.
This challenge provides a fun and collaborative opportunity to participate in friendly competition and learn about local biodiversity.
